3 Objectives Prerequisites After completing this lab, you will be able to: Create a point group and distribute content to it Add a new point Configure point properties Add the new point to an existing point group Monitor of content to a point Validate the health of content on a point Associate a point with a collection and validate automatic content deployment Implement pre-staged content on a point Convert a standard point to a pull point Report on point client usage This lab requires a Configuration Manager 2012 R2 site running (Primary1 is the site server virtual machine image). This lab also requires at least one Configuration Manager 2012 R2 client computer that is not the site server (Client1 is the client computer in). Estimated Time to Complete This Lab Computers used in this Lab 75 Minutes Primary1 Client1 The password for the administrator account on all computers in this lab is: password. Page 1

4 1 CREATING A DISTRIBUTION POINT GROUP In this exercise, you will create a point group and add a point to the point group. This will be the basic configuration for the remainder of this lab. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Primary1 1. Start the Configuration Manager Console 2. Create a point group and add a point to the group 1. On the Start menu, click Configuration Manager Console. NOTE: The System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager console window appears displaying the Overview page of the Assets and Compliance workspace. You could also have launched the Configuration Manager Console from Start, All Programs, Microsoft System Center 2012 R2, Configuration Manager, and then Configuration Manager Console. 1. Click the Administration workspace. NOTE: The Overview page of the Administration workspace appears. 2. In the navigation pane, click the Distribution Points node. NOTE: The list of points in the site appears in the results pane. Notice that there is one point in the site, that being "Primary1". "Primary1" is the site server by default Configuration Manager installs the point role on primary and secondary site servers during site installation. You will install an additional point later in this lab. Notice also that the preview pane displays additional information regarding the point, including its point group membership (it is not a member of any DP groups), protection status (not protected), and additional features (none enabled). 3. In the preview pane, click the Drives tab. NOTE: The disk drive configuration of the point appears in the preview pane. Notice that this point only contains one drive (C). Notice also that the drive space (total and free) is displayed, as well as priorities for the content library and package share. 4. In the navigation pane, click the Distribution Point Groups node. NOTE: The list of point groups in the site appears in the results pane. Notice that there are no point groups in the site. You will create a point group and verify the automatic deployment capabilities of Configuration Manager 2012 for point group content. 4. On the Ribbon, click Create Group. NOTE: The Create New Distribution Point Group dialog box appears allowing you to name the new point group, associate it with a collection, and add members ( points) to the group. The default view allows you to associate this point group with one or more collections, which you will do later in this lab. You need to be careful with your point group name and comment as this is global data. Being global data means that the data (or object) will replicate to all primary sites, as well as the central administration site, in the hierarchy. As a result, you should choose names and descriptions that make Page 2

5 sense when viewed from any site in the hierarchy. In our lab environment, we only have a single site, so any objects created are not replicated anywhere, so the names and descriptions used are not as important as they are in a hierarchy environment. 5. In the Name box, type Local DPs in MCM 6. In the Description box, type DPs on the local network and then click Add. NOTE: The Add Distribution Points dialog box appears displaying the available points. Notice that currently there is only one point available ("Primary1"). This is the default point installation on the site server. 7. Under Available points, click to select Primary1, and then click OK. NOTE: The Create New Distribution Point Group dialog box appears displaying the members of this point group. Notice that the local site server "Primary1" is now listed as a member of this point group. 8. Click OK. NOTE: The point groups in the site appear in the results pane. Notice that the new group is displayed, that it is not associated with a collection, and that it contains one member. Notice also that the details of this group, and disk space considerations for its members, appear in the preview pane. You have now successfully created a point group and added one point to the group. In the next exercise, you will deploy content to the point group, and verify the content status. Page 3

6 2 DISTRIBUTING CONTENT TO A DISTRIBUTION POINT GROUP In this exercise, you will distribute content to a point group. You will not deploy content directly to the point, as you have completed that process in other Configuration Manager 2012 labs. Deploying content to a point group will automatically deploy the content to all members of the point group, of which your group currently only contains one member. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Primary1 1. Distribute content to the point group 1. Click the Software Library workspace. NOTE: The Software Library workspace appears displaying the Overview page. 2. In the navigation pane, expand Application Management and then click Applications. NOTE: The list of applications appear in the results pane, with details on the selected application displayed in the preview pane. Notice that there are four applications in this lab environment. None of these four applications have been distributed to the site s point as of yet. You will distribute applications to the point group in this exercise and throughout the remainder of this lab. 3. In the navigation pane, click Packages. NOTE: The list of packages appear in the results pane, with details on the selected package displayed in the preview pane. Notice that there are four packages available in this lab environment, two of them are default packages in Configuration Manager 2012 R2 (one package is named "Configuration Manager Client Package" and the other is named User State Migration Tool for Windows 8.1 ). The first built-in package has already been distributed to the point on the site server (it is automatically distributed to all points in a site), and will not be used in this lab. The USMT package is not automatically distributed to all points in the site as is the Configuration Manager client installation package. Neither of the other two packages have been distributed to any points as of yet. You will distribute these two packages to the point group in this lab. 4. In the results pane, click CCM Framework Tools, and then on the Ribbon, click Distribute Content. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard General dialog box appears displaying the name of the content to be distributed. 5. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Content Destination dialog box appears allowing you to configure the target recipients (such as points) for this content. 6. Click Add. NOTE: A new menu appears with options for distributing the content. Notice that you can add a collection (to distribute to any associated points with the collection), individual points, or point groups. Page 4

7 2. Monitor content You will use collection association later in this lab, and have distributed content to a single point in other Configuration Manager 2012 labs. So you'll use the "Distribution Point Group" option for this process. 7. Click Distribution Point Group. NOTE: The Add Distribution Point Groups dialog box appears allowing you to configure the point group(s) for this content. Notice that by default no point groups have been added to the content. 8. Under Available point groups, click to select Local DPs in MCM, and then click OK. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Content Destination dialog box appears displaying the target for this content. Notice that our point group is now listed. 9. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Summary dialog box appears indicating that the content ("CCM Framework Tools") is ready to be distributed to one point group ("Local DPs in MCM"), however not to any collections nor any individual points. 10. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Completion dialog box appears indicating that the content was successfully initiated. 11. Click Close. NOTE: The System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager console appears displaying the results pane of packages. 1. Click the Monitoring workspace. NOTE: The Monitoring workspace appears displaying the Overview page. 2. In the navigation pane, expand Distribution Status, and then click Content Status. NOTE: The list of content available to be distributed appears in the results pane. Notice that there are 11 items displayed - two default boot images, four applications, and five packages (one is a hidden package that is not displayed in the "Packages" node). Notice also that the "Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools" content is displayed with a "Compliance %" of "100". If the Compliance % is not 100, wait a moment, and then refresh the Content Status node. If you check content for two of the three built-in packages (the two that have names that start with "Configuration Manager Client") you will see a status of "Success" for 100% compliance. This is due to the fact that these two packages are automatically distributed to all points in the site. 3. In the results pane, click Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools. NOTE: The details of the "Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools" content is displayed in the preview pane. Notice that it is targeted, and successfully distributed, to one point (as we currently only have one member in the group). 4. On the Ribbon, click View Status. NOTE: The "Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools" appears as a sticky Page 5

8 node under Content Status, as well as in the results pane. Notice that the results pane displays a tab for Success (in addition to tabs for other potential states of the content ) as well as Asset Details, which displays the name of the point that has successfully received the targeted content. 5. In the navigation pane, click Distribution Point Group Status. NOTE: The list of point groups and their content status appears in the results pane. Notice that the information includes the group name (we only have one) and description, the number of members of the group (one), the number of contents distributed to the group (one), and the status Success. Notice also that the preview pane provides additional detail for the content that has been distributed - the number of assigned content (one), and the status (100% success). 6. In the navigation pane, click Distribution Point Configuration Status. NOTE: The list of points appears in the results pane (we only have one at this time) as well as its basic configuration. Notice that the preview pane displays the status of "Success" for our targeted content (only one at this time). Page 6

9 3 CREATING A DISTRIBUTION POINT In this exercise, you will create a standard Configuration Manager 2012 R2 point on a Windows 7 client computer, configure appropriate properties, and add the new point to the recently created point group. This will cause the previously deployed content to be automatically deployed to the new point. You will begin by adding the site server computer account as a local administrator on the new point computer, which is a requirement to add any remote site system. Configuration Manager 2012 R2 supports the point role to be installed on a computer running a client operating system, including the installation and configuration of IIS by Configuration Manager if configured to do so. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Client1 1. Grant administrative rights for the site server computer at the proposed point computer 1. In Control Panel, click System and Security, click Administrative Tools, and then start Computer Management. Note: The Computer Management window appears. 2. In the tree pane, expand Local Users and Groups, and then click Groups. Note: The list of local group accounts appear in the results pane. The site server computer account (or a designated user account) is required to be a member of the "Administrators" group in order to successfully install any remote site system, including a point. 3. In the results pane, right-click Administrators, and then on the Action menu, click Properties. Note: The Administrators Properties dialog box appears displaying the members of the local Administrators group. Notice that the site server computer account is not listed. 4. Click Add. Note: The Select Users, Computers, Service Accounts, or Groups dialog box appears. 5. Click Object Types. Note: The Object Types dialog box appears. Notice that the "Computers" object is not selected by default. 6. Under Object types, click to select Computers, and then click OK. Note: The Select Users, Computers, Service Accounts, or Groups dialog box appears. 7. In the Enter the object names to select box, type Primary1 and then click OK. Note: The Administrators Properties dialog box appears displaying the members of the local "Administrators" group. Notice that the site server computer account is now listed as a member of the group. Page 7

10 8. Click OK. Note: The Computer Management window appears. 9. In the tree pane, expand Services and Applications, and then click Services. Note: The list of services appears in the results pane. Notice that there is no service for IIS (World Wide Publishing Service) installed. You can validate that the service does get installed after the installation of the point role on the computer. 10. Close the Computer Management, Administrative Tools, and System and Security windows. Note: Now that the site server computer account has been granted administrator rights on the proposed point computer, you can install the point role on this computer from the System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager console. In the following procedure, you will create the new point now that the site server has administrator rights, which you just provided in the previous procedure. After creating the new point on a client computer, you will view its properties, and then add it to the existing point group, which will automatically distribute any content already distributed to the point group to the new members of the point group. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Primary1 1. Create a new point 1. Click the Administration workspace. NOTE: The Administration workspace appears displaying the one point group for our site in the results pane. 2. In the navigation pane, expand Site Configuration, and then click Servers and Site System Roles. NOTE: The list of site systems appears in the results pane. Notice that there is only one site system in this site, that being the site server "Primary1". Notice also that the installed roles for the site server appear in the preview pane, including the "Distribution point" role. 3. On the Home tab of the Ribbon, click Create Site System Server. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard General dialog box appears allowing you to configure basic properties of the new site system. Notice that the default configuration is for the site server computer account to be used to install the site system (the Site System Installation Account) - which you just completed configuration of in the previous task. 4. In the Name box, type Client1 NOTE: Even though the "Example" for the "Name" is in FQDN format, if you simply type in the NetBIOS name, it will be converted to FQDN format with the site server's domain properties. Notice that the "Name" will be listed as Page 8

11 "Client1.ConfigMgrDom.local" when you move away from the "Name" box. 5. In the Site code box, click MCM - Configuration Manager 2012 R2 Primary Site. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard General dialog box displays the current configuration of the new site system. Notice that by default, the site server computer account will be used to install the remote point. This requires the site server to be a local administrator on the remote point, which you provided earlier in this exercise. 6. Click Next. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Proxy dialog box appears allowing you to configure any required proxy settings to allow appropriate site system roles to connect to the Internet. A point has no Internet access requirements, so is not appropriate for this lab. 7. Click Next to accept no proxy configuration. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard System Role Selection dialog box appears displaying the available site system roles for installation. At this point in the process, the wizard has no knowledge that the target computer is a workstation operating system, so the wizard displays all site system roles available for a site system installation. The only role that is supported on a Windows 7 computer is the point role - all other roles would fail to install on a workstation operating system. 8. Under Available roles, click to select Distribution point, and then click Next. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Distribution point dialog box appears allowing configuration of general point properties. Notice that you can request the point role installation install and configure IIS on the target computer, that you can enable BranchCache on the point (if the operating supports BranchCache), that it defaults to using HTTP as the protocol for client communications (though can be configured to HTTPS if needed), will create a self-signed certificate (though you can import an existing certificate), and not support prestaged content deployment. 9. Click to select Install and configure IIS if required by Configuration Manager, and then click Next to accept the default of not enabling BranchCache, using HTTP, to not allowing clients to connect anonymously, to use a self-signed certificate, and to not allow prestaged content (you will enable this later in the lab). NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Drive Settings dialog box appears allowing you to configure the amount of free space to maintain on each drive that Configuration Manager stores content on and the drives to use for content library and package shares. With Configuration Manager 2012, you can control which drive(s) Configuration Manager uses for storing the content library as well as the classic package share if enabled for storing package content. 10. Click Next to accept the defaults of 50MB of free space required and automatic determination of the drives to use (in the lab environment, there is only one drive for each computer). NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Pull Distribution Point dialog box displays the new point as a pull point. If not Page 9

12 configured as a pull point, the point will be a normal push-based point. In a push scenario, the site server connects to, and pushes the content to the point. A pull point however will initiate the download the appropriate content from another point in the site that contains the required content. You will configure a pull point later in this lab. 11. Click Next to not configure this point as a pull point. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard PXE Settings dialog box appears allowing you to configure PXE integration with the new point. Configuration Manager 2012 no longer allows a standalone PXE Service Point site system role, rather it is now a property of a standard point. However, this integration still requires Windows Deployment Services (WDS) to be installed on the point, which is not available for a Windows 7 computer. 12. Click Next to not configure PXE. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Multicast dialog box appears allowing you to configure multicast deployment of operating system images from the new point. However, this integration still requires Windows Deployment Services (WDS) to be installed on the point, which is not available for a Windows 7 computer. 13. Click Next to not configure multicast. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Content Validation dialog box appears allowing you to enable scheduled validation of content on the new point. This can be beneficial as a method to verify that no corruption or modification of content has occurred for content contained on the point. Notice that the default schedule is weekly. You will manually initiate a validation process in the lab, so don't need this enabled for this lab. 14. Click Next to not enable content validation. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Boundary Groups dialog box appears allowing you to configure the boundary groups that this point will be a member of. In Configuration Manager 2012, clients can only retrieve content from a point if it is a member of a boundary group. Notice that by default the point is not a member of any boundary groups, however you can add the point to an existing boundary group, or create a new boundary group as appropriate. 15. Click Add. NOTE: The Add Boundary Groups dialog box appears displaying the available boundary groups. Notice that our site only has one boundary group. 16. Under Boundary groups, click to select Local Clients in MCM, and then click OK. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Boundary Groups dialog box appears displaying the boundary groups that this point will be a member of. Notice that our local boundary group is now configured for this point. Notice also that by default the point allows clients from outside this boundary group to access content from this point. 17. Click Next. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Summary dialog box appears indicating that the wizard is ready to create the point. Page 10

13 Notice the information presented in the "Details" for the point configuration. 18. Click Next. NOTE: The Create Site System Server Wizard Completion dialog box appears indicating that the wizard has completed successfully the creation of the point. 19. Click Close. NOTE: The list of site system appears in the results pane. If "Client1" does not appear yet, refresh the Servers and Site System Roles node. 20. In the results pane, click \\Client1. NOTE: The site system roles for "\\Client1" appear in the preview pane. Notice that the system is installed as a point. 2. View properties for the new point You have now successfully created a new point. You will view its properties in the next task. 1. In the results pane, click \\Client1, and then in the preview pane, click Distribution point. 2. On the Site Role tab of the Ribbon, click Properties. NOTE: The Distribution point Properties dialog box appears displaying general properties for the point, including the ability to enable BranchCache, the protocol to be used (HTTP), that it does not support anonymous client connections, the certificate configuration (use a self-signed certificate that expires in one year), and that it does not support prestaged content deployment. The remaining tabs available for configuration of a point include: PXE to configure the point as a PXE service point and appropriate configuration settings for a PXE service point. As mentioned earlier in this lab, Configuration Manager 2012 no longer has a separate PXE service point role like exists in Configuration Manager 2007 Multicast to configure the point for multicast deployment of operating system images when a system is booted under WinPE Group Relationships to configure the point groups the point is a member of (you will add a relationship later in this lab for this point) Content to view the content that has been distributed to the point, as well as to validate content health, redistribute the content, or remove content from the point (the built-in Configuration Manager Client Package is displayed as it is automatically distributed to all points. You will distribute additional content to the point later in this lab) Content Validation to configure whether or not this point is regularly checked for content validation (you will initiate a manual content validation process later in this lab) Boundary Groups to configure the boundary group(s) that this point is a member of (the one you just added while creating the point), and whether or not clients outside the configured boundary groups can retrieve content from the Page 11

14 3. Add the new point to an existing point group point (the default configuration is to allow access) Schedule to configure the available hours and priorities for the site server to distribute content to this point. This is similar to address configuration for site-to-site communications. Notice that the default configuration is for all priority content 24 hours a day, seven days a week (you will configure this later in the lab). If you do not see the Schedule tab yet, it will appear after the point has completed installation on the remote computer Rate Limits to configure the communication properties (amount of traffic) for site server to point content. Notice that the default configuration is for unlimited network utilization for all hours of the day. If you do not see the Rate Limits tab yet, it will appear after the point has completed installation on the remote computer Pull Distribution Point to configure the point as a pullbased point instead of a push-based point. You can change this configuration after the point has been installed (as you will do later in this lab). If you do not see the Pull Distribution Point tab yet, it will appear after the point has completed installation on the remote computer If the "Schedule", "Rate Limits" and Pull Distribution Point tabs do not appear, close the "Distribution point Properties" dialog box, wait a moment, and then open it again. If they still do not appear, you can continue on with the lab, as you will view the point properties later in this lab. You will not configure any of these properties at this time. You will configure and use various options on the point throughout the remainder of the lab. 3. Click Cancel. NOTE: The site systems in the site appear in the results pane. 1. In the navigation pane, click Distribution Point Groups. NOTE: The list of point groups appear in the list. Notice that at this point, the point group only contains one member. 2. In the results pane, click Local DPs in MCM, and then on the Ribbon, click Show Members. NOTE: Local DPs in MCM appears as a sticky node in the navigation pane under Distribution Points, and the members of the group are displayed in the results pane. Notice that the group only contains one member at this time, Primary1. 3. In the navigation pane, click Distribution Point Groups. NOTE: The list of point groups appear in the list. Notice that at this point, your only point group only contains one member. 4. In the results pane, click Local DPs in MCM, and then on the Ribbon, click Properties. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM Properties dialog box appears displaying general properties of the point group. Notice that there is only one member of the group, and that it is not associated with any collections. 5. Click the Members tab. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM Properties dialog box displays the members Page 12

15 4. Verify content of the group. Notice that there is only one member of the group, that being Primary1. 6. Click Add. NOTE: The Add Distribution Points dialog box appears displaying the points that are available to add to the point group. Notice that there is only one available point Client1. Recall that Primary1 is already a member of the group. 7. Under Available points, click to select Client1, and then click OK. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM Properties dialog box displays the members of the group. Notice that there are now two members of the group, Primary1 and Client1. 8. Click OK. NOTE: The list of point groups appear in the list. Notice that at this point, the point group contains two members. If the "Member Count" does not display "2", refresh the Distribution Point Groups node. 9. On the Ribbon, click Show Members. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM sticky node is updated and the members of the group are displayed in the results pane. Notice that the group now contains both points in the site. Now that Client1 has been added to the point group, and the Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools package was previously distributed to the point group, that package will be automatically distributed to the new group member. You will verify that in the next task. 1. Click the Monitoring workspace. NOTE: The Monitoring workspace appears displaying the Distribution Point Configuration Status in the results pane, with "Client1" selected. Notice that the preview pane indicates that the Client1 point has a status of Success for one content. If the status is still "In Progress", wait a moment and then refresh the display. You may also see a failed status for two content s. These failures are for the two built-in packages that are automatically distributed to all points in the site. As soon as Client1 was added as a point, the content was attempted to be pushed to the new point, which fails, as the point configuration had not completed. Configuration Manager will automatically retry these two failed s within the next 30 minutes, at which time the status should change to Success for all three content s. 2. In the navigation pane, under Content Status, click Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools. NOTE: The content status for the Microsoft Corporation CCM Framework Tools package appears in the results pane. Notice that the content has been successfully distributed to both points. 3. In the navigation pane, expandunder the Distribution Status node, and then click Distribution Point Configuration Status. NOTE: The list of points appears in the results pane. Notice that "Client1" appears in the list. 4. In the results pane, click Client1, and then click the Details tab. NOTE: The messages generated for the point Client1 appear in Page 13

16 the preview pane. Notice that one message indicates that the IIS was installconfigured successfully on the point", while another message indicates that the package was successfully distributed to the point. You will see messages for three different packages being distributed to the point (the one you distributed as well as the two default packages). You have now created a new point in your site, validated that it was installed successfully (including the installation of the required IIS component), added the point to a point group, and verified that targeted content was automatically distributed to the new point as a result of its group membership. You will explore additional features of content management in the remainder of this lab. If you wish to, you can return to "Client1", and verify that now the "World Wide Publishing Service" has been installed and started. This occurred as part of the point installation process. Page 14

17 4 MONITORING CONTENT VALIDATION In this exercise, you will distribute an application to the point group. This application will include a dependent application, which will be distributed automatically. You will then use the content validation feature to verify, and repair, a corrupt application that had been previously distributed. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Primary1 1. Distribute an application that contains a dependent application 1. Click the Software Library workspace. NOTE: The Software Library workspace appears displaying the available packages in the results pane. 2. In the navigation pane, click Applications. NOTE: The list of applications in the site appears in the results pane. Notice that there are four applications in the site, none of which have been distributed to either point at this time. 3. In the results pane, click Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client, and then on the Ribbon, click Properties. NOTE: The Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client Properties dialog box appears displaying general properties for the application. 4. Click the References tab. NOTE: The Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client Properties dialog box appears displaying the referenced applications for the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" application. Notice that both "PowerPoint Viewer" and "Word Viewer" have a dependency on the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" application. You will see two references for each of the depending applications, as there are dependencies on both of the deployment types for the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" application. This application has one deployment type for the 32-bit version of the application, as well as one for the 64-bit version of the application. 5. Click Cancel. NOTE: The list of applications in the site appears in the results pane. 6. In the results pane, click PowerPoint Viewer, and then on the Ribbon, click View Relationships. NOTE: A new menu appears with options for relationship viewing. 7. Click Dependency. NOTE: The PowerPoint Viewer Dependencies dialog box appears displaying dependencies for the PowerPoint Viewer application. Notice that the application contains one deployment type, and one dependent application Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client, which contains the two deployment types previously referenced. You could also view the properties for the "PowerPoint Viewer" application to see the dependency for the deployment type configured in the application. 8. Click OK to close the PowerPoint Viewer Dependencies dialog box. Page 15

18 NOTE: The list of applications in the site appears in the results pane. 9. In the results pane, click PowerPoint Viewer, and then on the Ribbon, in the Deployment group, click Distribute Content. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard General dialog box appears displaying the application to distribute. Notice that the application displayed is "PowerPoint Viewer", and that the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" application is not listed to be distributed. Notice also that any dependent content is to be distributed automatically. Automatic content for dependencies works for task sequences and any content the task sequence refers to, just as it does for dependent applications as you are validating in this lab. 10. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Content dialog box appears displaying the content to distribute. Notice that both applications are now displayed, as the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" application was identified as a dependent application for "PowerPoint Viewer", and thus to be distributed automatically with the selection on the previous wizard page. 11. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Content Destination dialog box appears allowing you to designate the recipients for this content. 12. Click Add. NOTE: A new menu appears displaying options for target. Notice that the options include points associated with a collection (which you will implement later in this lab), a single point, and members of a point group. You have distributed to points in other Configuration Manager 2012 labs, so will target to a point group. 13. Click Distribution Point Group. NOTE: The Add Distribution Point Groups dialog box appears displaying the available point groups. Notice that there is only one available point group. 14. Under Available point groups, click to select Local DPs in MCM, and then click OK. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Content Destination dialog box appears displaying the designated recipients for this content. Notice that the selected point group "Local DPs in MCM" is listed as a target. 15. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Summary dialog box appears. Notice the "Content" and "Dependencies" listed, as well as the target recipient displayed. 16. Click Next. NOTE: The Distribute Content Wizard Completion dialog box appears. 17. Click Close. NOTE: The list of applications appears in the results pane. You will verify content in the next task. 2. Verifying 1. In the results pane, click PowerPoint Viewer. Page 16

19 content 3. Verify content health (initiated from the application) NOTE: The details of the "PowerPoint Viewer" application appear in the preview pane. Notice that the "Content Status" indicates that the content has been successfully distributed (listed as "Success"). This was the application you requested content for. You may need to refresh the results pane display to see the updated content status in the preview pane. It may take a couple of minutes to complete to both points, so you may see both "Success" and "In Progress" for a period of time. 2. In the results pane, click Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client. NOTE: The details of the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" application appear in the preview pane. Notice that the "Content Status" indicates that the content has been successfully distributed (listed as "Success"). This application was not directly requested for content however it was identified as a dependent application, and was distributed automatically. It may take a moment for the content to be distributed to both points. 3. Click the Monitoring workspace. NOTE: The Monitoring workspace appears displaying the configuration status of points in the results pane. 4. In the navigation pane, click Content Status. NOTE: The list of available content appears in the results pane. Notice that both "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" and "PowerPoint Viewer" indicate 100% compliance (as well as any other content that had previously been distributed). You may not see 100% at this point, as it takes some time to distribute content over the network to the remote point. If not 100%, wait another moment and then refresh the Content Status node. 1. Click the Software Library workspace. NOTE: The Software Library workspace appears displaying the list of applications in the results pane. 2. In the results pane, click PowerPoint Viewer, and then on the Ribbon, click Properties. NOTE: The PowerPoint Viewer Properties dialog box appears displaying general properties for the application. 3. Click the Content Locations tab. NOTE: The PowerPoint Viewer Properties dialog box displays the points and point groups that this application has been distributed to. Notice that both the points as well as the one point group are listed. 4. Under Distribution points or point groups, click Client1, and then click Validate. NOTE: A Configuration Manager message box appears prompting to validate the selected content on the point. 5. Click OK. NOTE: A Configuration Manager message box appears indicating that the content is being validated and to check the Content Status node in the Monitoring workspace for validation status. Page 17

20 6. Click OK. NOTE: The PowerPoint Viewer Properties dialog box displays the points and point groups that this application has been distributed to. 7. Click Cancel. NOTE: The list of applications appears in the results pane. 8. Click the Monitoring workspace. NOTE: The Monitoring workspace appears displaying the list of content and their status in the results pane. Notice that the "PowerPoint Viewer" application is listed as 100% compliant. If there were any problems with the content, the "content validation" process would report the issue in the Content Status node of the Monitoring workspace. You can verify that the status is current by refreshing the display, and viewing the "Last Update" time in the preview pane. You will "corrupt" the content for this application on the remote point in the next procedure, after which you will then validate content health again. In the following procedure, you will manually corrupt an application that has been distributed to the point by renaming one of its files. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Client1 1. Corrupt a distributed application 1. Start Windows Explorer, expand Computer, and then click Local Disk (C:). Note: The Windows Explorer window appears displaying the contents of the system drive. Notice the "SCCMContentLib" folder. This is the library of distributed content on a point that replaces the point package share from Configuration Manager In the tree pane, expand Local Disk (C:), and then click SCCMContentLib. Note: The Windows Explorer window displays the contents of the "SCCMContentLib" folder. Notice that three folders are contained here: DataLib - this contains metadata for the content library FileLib - this contains the individual files in the content library using single instance store PkgLib - this contains information on packages distributed to the point 3. In the tree pane, expand SCCMContentLib, and then click DataLib. Note: The Windows Explorer window displays the contents of the "SCCMContentLib\DataLib" folder. Notice that there are files Page 18

21 and folders here for content (three packages and two applications - however one application, the "Microsoft Application Virtualization Desktop Client" has two deployment types with unique content, so you will see what looks like three applications on the point) that have been distributed to this point. You can identify packages by the classic "object name" that begins with the site code. Applications are managed by "content" so the name and folder begins with "Content". 4. In the tree pane, expand SCCMContentLib, and then click FileLib. Note: The Windows Explorer window displays the contents of the "SCCMContentLib\FileLib" folder. Notice that there are folders here for each file of each distributed "content" (three packages and two applications - one with two deployment types) that have been distributed to this point. You can't easily associate the individual file content to the appropriate folders, nor should you need to do so. In Configuration Manager 2007, it was very common that administrators would go to the "SMSPKGx$" share, find a package, and then modify its content. That caused numerous problems, and is not the same process in Configuration Manager In the tree pane, expand SCCMContentLib, and then click PkgLib. Note: The Windows Explorer window displays the contents of the "SCCMContentLib\PkgLib" folder. Notice that there are five files here for packages in the site. If you only see three files in the folder, that is an indication that the two automatically distributed, built-in, packages have not been distributed to the point yet (this will have no effect on this lab). For this folder, applications are treated like packages in terms of object IDs. 6. In the tree pane, expand SCCMContentLib, expand FileLib, and then click D304. Note: The Windows Explorer window displays the contents of the "SCCMContentLib\FileLib\D304" folder. Notice that there are three files in this folder, one with a file size of 9KB. This file is the manifest file (.xml) for the sequenced PowerPoint Viewer application. Notice also that it does not have an extension (appears under "Type" as "File"). 7. In the results pane, click the top file in the list (the file that is 9KB in size), and rename it, adding a.txt extension to the existing file name. Note: The Windows Explorer window displays the contents of the "SCCMContentLib\FileLib\D304" folder. Notice that there are three files in this folder, one with a file size of 9KB. This file is the manifest file (.xml) for the sequenced PowerPoint Viewer application. Notice also that it now has an extension (appears Page 19

22 under "Type" as "Text Document"). This process has now "corrupted" this file on this point. You should not do this in your production environments. You will identify the corruption and repair it in the next procedure. In the following procedure, you will validate the content for the "PowerPoint Viewer" application on the remote point, which is now corrupt. You will then repair the application with a re process. You will initiate the validation process from the point, however could also do so from the 'content' itself. Tasks Detailed steps Complete the following task on: Primary1 1. Validate content health (from the point) 1. Click the Administration workspace. NOTE: The Administration workspace appears displaying the members of the "Local DPs in MCM" point group in the results pane. 2. In the results pane, click Client1, and then on the Home tab of the Ribbon, click Properties. NOTE: The Distribution point Properties dialog box appears displaying general properties for the point. If you were not able to view the "Schedule", "Rate Limits" and Pull Distribution Point tabs previously when viewing the Client1 point properties, they both should be available now. 3. Click the Content tab. NOTE: The Distribution point Properties dialog box displays the content distributed to this point. Notice the individual content distributed (total of four pieces of content), including "PowerPoint Viewer". 4. Under Deployment packages, click PowerPoint Viewer, and then click Validate. NOTE: A Configuration Manager message box appears prompting to validate the selected content on the point. 5. Click OK. NOTE: A Configuration Manager message box appears indicating that the content is being validated and to check the Content Status node in the Monitoring workspace for validation status. 6. Click OK. NOTE: The Distribution point Properties dialog box appears. Page 20

23 2. Repairing a corrupt application by redistributing the content 7. Click Cancel. NOTE: The list of point members of the "Local DPs in MCM" point group appear in the results pane. 8. Click the Monitoring workspace, and then in the results pane, click PowerPoint Viewer. NOTE: The Monitoring workspace appears displaying the list of content and their status in the results pane. Notice that the "PowerPoint Viewer" application is listed as 50% compliant. You will recall that the content for this application was 100% compliant previously. If your status is still 100%, wait a moment and then refresh the Content Status node. 9. In the results pane, click PowerPoint Viewer. NOTE: The status of the "PowerPoint Viewer" application appears in the preview pane. Notice that the application is listed as one "Success" and one "Failed". 10. On the Ribbon, click View Status. NOTE: The "Content Status" and "Asset Details" appear in the results pane, displaying "Success" status and assets ("Primary1"). 11. Click the Error tab. NOTE: The "Content Status" and "Asset Details" appear in the results pane, displaying Error status and assets. Notice that the "Status" indicates that "Following files of package MCM00008 on point Client1 are missing", while the "Asset Details" indicates that the point "Client1" is missing the "PowerPointViewer_2007_manifest.xml" file, which is the file that you renamed. You will initiate a repair of this corrupt application in the next task. 1. Click the Administration workspace. NOTE: The Administration workspace appears displaying the members of the "Local DPs in MCM" point group in the results pane. 2. In the navigation pane, click Distribution Point Groups. NOTE: The available point groups appear in the results pane. 3. In the results pane, click Local DPs in MCM, and then on the Ribbon, click Properties. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM Properties dialog box appears displaying general properties of the point group. 4. Click the Content tab. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM Properties dialog box appears displaying content (one package and two applications that has been distributed to the point group. Notice that PowerPoint Viewer is displayed. The other built-in package does not appear here as it was not targeted to the point group. 5. Under Deployment packages, click PowerPoint Page 21

24 3. Validating the status of the content re Viewer, and then click Redistribute. NOTE: A Configuration Manager message box appears prompting to redistribute the selected content all points in the point group. If you do redistribute to the members of a point group, all points in the group will receive an updated version of the content, regardless of whether or not the content is healthy or unhealthy. If you wanted to repair the content on just the one point, you could initiate the content re from the individual point, or via the application itself, specifying the single point for re. You are using this process just to see that you can redistribute to all members of a point group if necessary (in this case, it is not necessary as the content is only corrupt on one point) and to view the differences in messages when content is repaired versus just redistributed. 6. Click OK. NOTE: The Local DPs in MCM Properties dialog box appears. 7. Click Cancel. NOTE: The list of point groups appears in the results pane. You will validate the re and compliance of the application in the next task. 1. Click the Monitoring workspace. NOTE: The Monitoring workspace appears displaying the status of the PowerPoint Viewer application. Notice that the Error state has been removed and both points are listed with a Status Type of Success. You will likely need to refresh the results pane to see the updated status information. Depending on the timing, you may see the "Error" status replaced with an "In Progress" status as the content is redistributed to the point. 2. Click the Success tab. NOTE: The Content Status node appears displaying the "Success" status and assets. Notice that both Client1 and "Primary1" indicate that the status is "Successfully distributed content". 3. In the navigation pane, click Content Status. NOTE: The Content Status node appears displaying the available content types and their status appears in the results pane. Notice that the Compliance % displays "100.0" for "PowerPoint Viewer". You will verify that the file renamed earlier in this exercise has been repaired. Page 22
